Yorel was a horrible lecturer and classes were extremely boring. Attendance is not mandatory. I did not attend half the classes and got 100% on the final. Lectures are long and boring but the material wasn't awful to learnRate My Professors ↗

Reads word for word off the slide. Nice guy but horrible professor. Class is easy but he makes tests somewhat difficult (and poorly worded) by asking textbook specific details. Not worth taking this class as an elective.Rate My Professors ↗
Quality 3/5Difficulty 4/5
Lectures are confusing and he often goes off on tangents. Exams were difficult because he would pull random material from the textbook.Rate My Professors ↗
Quality 2/5Difficulty 4/5
Lectures were boring, awkward, and unclear. He often contradicted himself and went off on tangents on things that were unrelated to the class. Exams questions were unclear making what should have been an easy class difficult. I have loved other EdPsych classes I have taken but this class did not meet my expectation.Rate My Professors ↗

Great teacher and easy class! 4 quizzes & lowest one dropped. One small paper/outline due towards end of semester, but very easy. You're given another chance to turn in outline for higher grading! Two multiple choice exams, one of them being the final on the last day of class. Oh, and those 3 darn ed psych hours which were actually quick and easy!Rate My Professors ↗
